In a shocking incident captured on video and shared by Hello FM on June 7, 2023, a family was compelled to exhume a deceased body four hours after burial due to concerns raised by the Ngleshie Amanfrom Traditional authorities.

According to Hello FM’s report, the family, originally from Gomoa Nyanyano, had clandestinely buried their deceased loved one at the Ngleshie Amanfrom cemetery without following the necessary traditional rites, prompting the intervention of the local authorities.
